Bruce marries with Demi in tow

In a private ceremony at his residence in Parot Bay, Turks and Caicos, Bruce Willis, 54, married model, Emma Heming, 30 along with Demi Moore, their 3 daughters, and her husband Ashton Kutcher.

This is the second marriage for Bruce Willis after being a playboy among Hollywood young starlets. Ironically, the age difference between Willis and his young bride mirrors the decades between Demi and Ashton. But the media circus gabbing about the age discrepancy with Willis/Heming is minimal, if not non-existant compared to the uproar when Moore/Kutcher wed.

As we look at the phenomenon, many slang terms exist to describe these pairings. "Cougars" are women pursuing men at least 8 years their junior. The name implies these women are merely predators rather than females that are attracted to younger men. Don't we all have our preferences when it comes to dating? Some like tall, some like short, some like quiet, others outgoing--thank God for Baskin Robbins' 31 flavors! On the flip side, a "cradle robber" refers to the older male involved with a younger woman.

These are recognized for spousal age differences, but what about the men and women that are dating/married to other people of "interest"? Loud dinner guests? Selfish narcissists? Brainless pretty boys? Gabbing airheads? Texas Cheerleader Moms? and the worst, Obnoxious know-it-alls? You know the ones. I'm sure you have an actual name tied to every one of these descriptions and your cringing about the next time you have to be around them and their unfortunate spouse.

Without knowing, I just coined a new term, "unfortunate spouse". This covers all the poor souls that (electively) stay with those that are deemed "unacceptable" to us. But, our perception is not a reality for all: We may intentionally not invite Demure Annie and Loudmouth Billy to our annual neighborhood BBQ soiree, but they may be dining with Brad and Angelina at Le Cirque that weekend anyhow. What's acceptable to one is not universal for all.

Google even now has application for "labels" for Gmail. Thank God my "labels" aren't universal...there would be no order in the New World! My quirky "labels" work fine with me, but who am I to impose them on you? They're working for me.

Congrats Bruce and Emma! Hope this "Hollywood marriage" lasts longer than most. Oh, darn---that's a label.
